Scientist Dramatizes. Germs’ Potentialities

Te Pe. Science Jurvies ; CHICAGO, May 21—~A new kind of .deadly chain reaction as danger ous as that which makes the atom bomb has been dramatized in the unofficial Smyth report on germ warfare. The report was discussed by the American Association of Scientific Workers at the meeting of the Federated Societies of Experimental Blology here. ' This chain reaction is what makes it 80 hard-to stop an epidemic of flu or measles or any other disease caught from germs in the air, The chain reaction means that an enemy would not need a very large quantity of germs to cause great

havoe. Millions Exhaled A man in a factory coming down with some deadly disease spreads millions of its tiny invisible germs in the air of the plant with every ~{breath exhaled from his lungs. These germs do not fall.to the ground and die. They remain alive in the air for hours, existing in an invisible mist. All the other workers in the plant will draw some of them into their bodies with each breath they take. Then they get sick, but the general reaction of the germs doesn’t stop there. Each of these persons in turn becomes a new link in the chain,

Human Germ Factories . Each one becomes a small germ "factory, breathing more germs iA his body and exhaling them with every breath, This chain reaction was described to me in connection with the way measles spread in schools by Dr. William FP. Wells of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine recently. If the germs were of a rare disease Or one uncommon in our own country, our doctors might not recognize it at first. They might not know how to treat it or even how it spreads. Arsenals From Distilleries A brewery in any small country could be a germ warfare arsenal in

disguise. ; Distilleries in the United States turned their fermentation processes . |to growigg ‘=e smnide that nroduced penicillin and streptomycin. In the same way, harmless looking breweries and distilleries could turn secretly to mass production of deadly germs.
